I'm in the IT department at a community college campus and have installed PDF Creator on numerous student access and faculty/staff PCs. Our spyware intervention system, Counterspy, is now marking the PDFCreator browser toolbar (for Internet Explorer only) in the following manner and subsequently deleting the :

I had previous approval to install PDF Creator for users who needed simple PDF output, but because of this current spyware report, I have been instructed to remove installations from PCs. The version reported above is not the most current, but I can no longer upgrade/update the PDF Creator. A real shame as I've been promoting the use of PDF Creator for a number of years at a high school where I was previously employed.

Anyone else running into this?
